Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a preview information processing method and system for an uploaded video file,

The present invention relates to a method and system for processing preview information in an uploaded video file, and more particularly, to a method and system for processing preview information in an uploaded video file by capturing a partial video of a video file uploaded to a server or a web hard for previewing, And more particularly, to a method and system for efficiently processing a signal.

Thumbnails (thumbnails, thumbnails, or thumbnails) are usually created by minimizing the entire page so that you can review the layout of the entire page, and usually do not use small size (resolution) It simply uses HTML encoding. However, HTML encoding does not actually reduce the size of the picture, it just shows the size of the image, and the visual quality of the scaling is not as good as expected. Therefore, it is recommended that you reduce the size of your photos directly using a separate program rather than using HTML encoding. By directly reducing the size of the photo, network traffic problems can be reduced and users' web page download times can be reduced. In addition, the thumbnail function allows you to edit any part of the content of a large file with a very short file size.

Traditionally, a web site that provides movies, images, various software, etc. for a fee, free of charge, or shared allows the customer to upload or download the corresponding video, image, or various software. These websites allow other customers to download and provide customer-uploaded videos.

In addition, we provide a thumbnail, or preview, of the video to the customer who wants to download it from the website. However, it takes a lot of resources and time to process the preview video about the corresponding video, and the preview video can not be encoded from the video. Therefore, there is an inefficient problem in the operation of the system for preview service of moving images.

4 is a flowchart illustrating a preview information processing method of an uploaded video file according to another embodiment of the present invention.

Hereinafter, a preview information processing method and system for an uploaded moving picture file according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1, a user terminal 1 is connected to a web server 2 that provides a web site through which a video can be uploaded and downloaded via a communication network. The user terminal 1 may include a PC such as a desktop, a notebook, and a tablet, or a mobile communication terminal such as a smart phone emphasizing mobility. The user terminal 1 may access any web site of the web server 2 and upload any video file or any terminal contribution that can be downloaded.

The web server 2 provides a web site to which a plurality of user terminals 1 can access via a communication network. The web server 2 provides various contents related to the moving picture by providing the web site.

The moving picture server 3 stores moving picture data uploaded from a plurality of user terminals 1 via the web server 2. The moving picture server 3 stores moving pictures in a file format having various formats and transmits the stored moving pictures to the user terminal 1. At this time, the moving picture server 3 may store one or more moving picture files having the same contents.

The preview moving picture server 6 stores a part of preview moving pictures encoded from the moving pictures uploaded from the plurality of user terminals 1. The preview moving picture server 6 extracts a predetermined portion of a predetermined time from the moving picture file stored in the moving picture server 3 and is encoded into a preview moving picture. It is preferable that the preview video is stored for about one minute or less. However, if necessary, the preview video can be encoded and stored by dividing the entire playback time by a predetermined time unit. For example, in a video with 1 hour of playback time, it can be saved as a preview video divided into 20 seconds for the first part, 20 seconds for the middle part, and 20 seconds for the last part.

The DB server 5 stores preview video information on the uploaded video from the plurality of user terminals 1. [ The DB server 5 stores information about the moving picture stored in the moving picture server 3, for example, a classification, a title, a file name, a file size, a resolution, a video and audio format, In addition, the DB server 5 stores information on the presence or absence of a preview moving picture related to the moving image, whether or not the moving image can be reproduced, and the like.

A workstation 4 processes moving picture and preview moving-related information input and output by the web server 2, and a workstation 4 is provided with a preview manager. The preview manager stores the video file uploaded by the user terminal 1 through the web server 2 in the video server 3 and encodes the preview video from the video file stored in the video server 3, And storing the preview moving picture information on the moving picture stored in the moving picture server 3 in the DB server 5. [

In FIG. 2, a plurality of user terminals 1 access a web site provided by the web server 2 through a communication network and upload a new video file (S11). The web site uploads or downloads videos or provides various information and contents related to the videos. The web server 2 stores the new video file uploaded from the user terminal 1 in the video server 3 (S12).

Further, the Web server 2 registers preview video information on the uploaded new video file in the DB server 5. [ At this time, the DB server 5 sets the status flag to 0 as preview moving picture information of the moving picture (S13). The status flag is used to judge the presence or absence of a preview video. Therefore, when the status flag is 0, it indicates that there is no preview moving picture information.

The preview manager installed in the work station 4 retrieves preview video information having a status flag of 0 from the DB server 5 and executes the retrieval (S14).

Then, the preview manager searches whether the preview video information that has been loaded is included in the preview video information already stored in the DB server 5 (S15). That is, the presence or absence of the preview video related to the video stored in the video server 3. This may be the case where a video having the same content is uploaded and stored in the video server 3.

Therefore, if there is preview video information already stored in the DB server 5, the preview manager retrieves the preview video information already stored in the DB server 5, stores the preview video information in the preview video information of the new video, (S16).

However, if there is no preview video information stored in the DB server 5, the preview manager loads the video data in the video server 3 (S17). The preview manager extracts and encodes the preview moving image from the loaded moving image data (S18). At this time, it is preferable that the preview video to be encoded is about 1 to 2 minutes. The preview manager stores the encoded preview video in the preview video server 6 (S19).

In addition, the preview manager stores preview video information in the DB server 5 and sets the status flag as a success value (S20).

If the preview manager can not retrieve the moving picture data from the moving picture server 3 in step S17 or can not encode it as a preview moving picture in step S18 or the preview moving picture can not be previewed in step S19, The preview manager sets the status flag to the DB server 5 as the failure value (S21).

Next, a preview information processing system and method of an uploaded video file will be described as another embodiment according to the present invention.

3, the user terminal 1 is connected to a web server 2 that provides a web site through which a video can be uploaded and downloaded via a communication network. The user terminal 1 may include a PC such as a desktop, a notebook, and a tablet, or a mobile communication terminal such as a smart phone emphasizing mobility. The user terminal 1 may access any web site of the web server 2 and upload any video file or any terminal contribution that can be downloaded.

The web server 2 provides a web site to which a plurality of user terminals 1 can access via a communication network. The web server 2 provides various contents related to the moving picture by providing the web site.

The video servers 3 and 3n store the video data uploaded from the plurality of user terminals 1 via the web server 2. The video servers 3 and 3n store moving pictures in a file format having various formats and transmit the stored moving pictures to the user terminal 1. [ At this time, the moving picture server 3, 3n may store one or more moving picture files having the same contents.

The video servers 3 and 3n process moving image and preview video related information input and output from the web server 2 and a preview manager is installed in the video server 3 and 3n. The preview manager stores the video file uploaded by the user terminal 1 through the web server 2 in the video server 3 and 3n and encodes the preview video from the video file stored in the video server 3 and 3n And storing the preview moving picture information about the moving picture stored in the moving picture server 3, 3n in the preview moving picture server 6 in the DB server 5. In addition, a plurality of video servers 3 and 3n may be installed and may separately store video files uploaded according to the type of video. Therefore, it is preferable that a preview manager is installed in each of the video servers 3 and 3n.

The preview moving picture server 6 stores a part of preview moving pictures encoded from the moving pictures uploaded from the plurality of user terminals 1. The preview moving picture server 6 extracts a predetermined portion of a predetermined time from the moving picture file stored in the moving picture server 3, 3n and is encoded as a preview moving picture. It is preferable that the preview video is stored for about one minute or less. However, if necessary, the preview video can be encoded and stored by dividing the entire playback time by a predetermined time unit. For example, in a video with 1 hour of playback time, it can be saved as a preview video divided into 20 seconds for the first part, 20 seconds for the middle part, and 20 seconds for the last part.

The DB server 5 stores preview video information on the uploaded video from the plurality of user terminals 1. [ The DB server 5 stores information on the moving picture stored in the moving picture servers 3 and 3n such as classification, title, file name, file size, resolution, video and audio format, playback time, and the like. In addition, the DB server 5 stores information on the presence or absence of a preview moving picture related to the moving image, whether or not the moving image can be reproduced, and the like.

Another embodiment of the preview information processing method of the uploaded moving picture file having the above-described structure according to the present invention will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

In FIG. 4, a plurality of user terminals 1 access a web site provided by the web server 2 through a communication network and upload a new video file (S31). The web site uploads or downloads videos or provides various information and contents related to the videos. The web server 2 stores the new video file uploaded from the user terminal 1 in the video server 3, 3n (S32).

Further, the Web server 2 registers preview video information on the uploaded new video file in the DB server 5. [ At this time, the DB server 5 sets the status flag to 0 as preview moving picture information of the moving picture (S33). The status flag is used to judge the presence or absence of a preview video. Therefore, when the status flag is 0, it indicates that there is no preview moving picture information.

The preview manager installed in each of the plurality of video servers 3 and 3n retrieves preview video information whose status flag is 0 from the DB server 5 in step S34.

If the retrieved preview video information is a video stored in the video server 3, 3n, the preview manager searches whether the preview video information is already stored in the DB server 5 (S35). That is, the presence or absence of the preview video related to the video stored in the video server 3, 3n. This may be the case where a moving picture having the same content is uploaded and stored in the moving picture server 3, 3n.

The preview manager determines whether the same preview moving image information already stored in the DB server 5 is registered (S36). If the same preview video information is registered, the preview manager retrieves the preview video information already stored in the DB server 5, stores the preview video information in the preview video information of the new video, sets the status flag as a success value, and stores it ).

However, if there is no preview video information stored in the DB server 5, the preview manager retrieves video data from the video server 3, 3n and extracts and encodes the preview video (S38). At this time, it is preferable that the preview video to be encoded is about 1 to 2 minutes. The preview manager stores the encoded preview video in the preview video server 6 (S39).

Further, the preview manager stores the preview video information in the DB server 5 and sets the status flag to the success value (S40).

If the preview manager can not encode the preview movie as a preview movie in step S38 or the preview movie can not be stored in the preview video server in step S39, The flag is set to the failure value (S41).
